Violent City aka The Family – Charles Bronson Bloody crime Action Shootout Movie

March 112010

Opening car chase and shootout from Violent City aka The Family aka Città violenta Cité de la violence, La . Another great Charles Bronson film that has no dialog in the opening first ten minutes. Another two films that come to mind are once Upon a Time in the West, and The Mechanic.

The Family Città violenta Cité de la violence, La Telly Savalas Jill Ireland Sergio Sollima “The Godfather” Gave You an Offer You Couldn’t Refuse. “The Family” Gives You No Alternative. After a bloody double-cross leaves him for dead, professional hit man Jeff tracks the shooter and his beautiful mistress to New Orleans. But when Jeff takes both revenge and the woman, he finds himself blackmailed by a powerful crime boss who wants the fiercely independent gunman to join his organization. Jeff refuses, and is hunted through an unforgiving city where love is like a loaded gun and debts of vengeance are paid in bullets.
Italian French coproduction New Orleans music score by Ennio Morricone car chase, a sniper scene sharp shooter There are no good guys in this movie gangster pic revenge hit-man almost killed local Mafioso boss crime assassination attempt femme fatale totally badass complex revenge plot is, basically, a combination of two seminal American noirs OUT OF THE PAST (1947) and POINT BLANK (1967). The end result is overlong and deliberately-paced but the second half generates considerable tension, and the action sequences (particularly the opening car chase, a racing-car accident and the climactic shoot-out in a rising elevator which, incidentally, are all the more effective for being completely dialogue-free) are undeniably well-staged and exciting. adrenalin-pumping intensity
wild car chase through extremely narrow streets (and over stairs!) and ending with a violent shootout! And all this time not a single word is being spoken by anyone and all we here are the sounds of squeaking tires, snorting car engines and Ennio Moricone’s umpteenth fabulous soundtrack.
compelling plot, gritty atmosphere and terrific acting performances by Charles Bronson (as the silent as always but deadly killer), Telly Savalas (as the sneering, sleazy and eccentric super-villain) and Jill Ireland (as the bimbo who appears to screw around with half of the city). Payback organized crime network using her feminine wiles to survive in an underworld of sleazy, dangerous mobsters and killers. Crazed “tragic love” contract killer
portrait of a killer growing old and watching his craft lose the honour it once had at the hands of the newer generation of more ruthless crooks. spaghetti crime film.

    Charles Bronson is without a doubt one of the best tough guys around for his era. He’s just outside my era, but man when i discoverd the death wish movies, i had to watch everything he was in. Its a shame most of this younger generation will not ever know who this guy was. There’s your bloody crime.
